Guys in Cali have been doing that for years. It wouldn't surprise me if you could find one already built, used........Goodluck!
Maybe just a summer trip to the dunes with an empty truck and you could come home with one.

A stock banshee...
engine would be a nightmare to keep on boost and in the power all the time. I think a CR 500 or KX 500 turbo would have a lot more bottom end torque to help get the turbo spinning and run out good on top, Plus a lot lighter. Banshee would sound good though, Love mine and will just keep improving it as time goes on.

I would think that would be BA!! with smart carbs and a turbo would be great fun. maybe even without turbo.

Why not just run a single smart carb? The single carb conversion is popular on them.

These engines used to make a good 70 hp in stock trim on the RD 350 street bike with very little work they do 80 HP without the vibrations of the big singles.
I could be happy with a set of smart carbs and 75 to 80 HP
The problem as always is weight and size -- hard to beat the 450s -- what I would really like is a supercharger with a solid 65 to 70 hp at altitude now we are talking loved the supercharger on my sled would be even better on the donkey

super charger would be awesome. But how you ever spin it? how does a Harley one work?
It will not be easy--probably driving it straight of the clutch side gears with a custom cover - or maybe the Ignition side both will take a minimum of a custom cover and some type of gear drive I don't think the crank could handle driving of the end of the Ignition side like on a sled.
